| Cleaning Solar Cells Photo by Christoph Kortmann created 10/20/2001 submitted 8/27/2002 12:55:58 AM The picture shows a solar panel with Gochermann cell lamination. It can be seen that there is a lot of contamination due to spraying the array with regular tap water and shipping. In the middle of the photo, there's a small strip which seems to be clean. This was achieved by applying a special 3M tape to the surface. The tape does not damage the pyramid structure. Several other methods were tested but found not useful. During the preparations for WSC 2001, the Mad Dog team spend almost a week cleaning with very good results. | |

| testing cell active area Photo by eloy avila created 7/15/2002 submitted 7/14/2002 10:38:54 PM Cell active area can be tested by putting a cell in forward bias. The cell essentially then becomes an LED and glows where there is active area. | |
